Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone is working on (or has a) target-s3-parquet? I did find target-s3 which can save files to Parquet, but this one is not build using the SDK, and is lacking some features.

Took a look. There's about 50 lines, many of which are log messages, that converts the json files locally created to parquet format. That could be added to target-athena as another file format. It already supports csv and json, and the conversion and a small change to the DDL to create the athena / glue tables is all that would be required. There's #C01RKUVUG4S

Yes, you are right, it was quite straight forward, I created my own version for the moment.
(Realized after I posted that it was the tap channel 🙃)

a parquet format would be a very welcome contribution to
target-athena

We are developing one in-house. It will be open-sourced when fully tested. WEe still have an issue with null columns that do not have the proper data type from the tap schema.
